Update on my 2025 Laramie that's been sitting at the dealership for almost six weeks (due to a CEL). We had to expedite a second PCM, which took some effort because my case manager had to coordinate with multiple internal suppliers. The new PCM arrived recently, but the technicians couldn’t flash it due to an error code of "Invalid skim key" caused by a programming failure. An active DTC popped up, indicating another internal short in the PCM. The tech has now opened another STAR case and requested assistance from Stellantis. It seems there was some corruption during the flashing process.

What worries me is that ordering a new PCM is a major hassle due to severe backorders. The situation is incredibly frustrating, and I’m losing hope. I’m unfortunately starting to consider reaching out to lemon law attorneys. This is the second PCM they've tried to flash. Truly unacceptable.

Service techs aren't mechanics much anymore, they are programmers... Sad.

Bucking and jerking, stalling out at idle and low throttle, and misfire codes.

Do you also feel a rumble strip sensation when accelerating sometimes? I feel like that’s transmission as well

No, I don't feel the rumble strip sensation.

Service department called me today and asked if I wanted to put some miles on my truck this weekend and report back Monday. Star had them replace the maf. They haven't closed the ticket yet because they want to leave it open while some miles are put on it. That way, if it does it again they won't have to open another, I guess is the reasoning. So, I picked it up. No malfunction immediately, we'll see how it acts.

You gotta be joking... how is this not a Lemon Law case at this point?

It's about to be, I think. I have not yet requested a buyback, but I likely will be soon. At least I don't have a bunch of *******s for a dealership, they've been great throughout all this.
